1. 1. Isokinetic lower-limb strength and injury risk among alpine skiers : A retrospective study

   Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Idrottsmedicin

   Författare :Olle Hörnfeldt; [2018]
   Nyckelord :Prevention; Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries; Hamstring to quadriceps ratio; Limb symmetry index;

   Sammanfattning : ACL injuries are severe injuries and also the most common diagnosis among alpine skiers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate alpine skiers isokinetic strength and the risk of ACL injury. LÄS MER

3. 2. A comparison of maximal knee flexor and extensor strength for assessing bilateral imbalance in Swedish elite hockey players.

   Magister-uppsats, Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

   Författare :Thomas Avenbrand; [2014]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Aim The aim of this study was to determine knee extensor (Q) and flexor (H) muscle strength characteristics in a group of professional Swedish hockey players, including maximal isokinetic torque and any asymmetries seen in these.    Method This study was designed to measure strength and power performance during unilateral movement involving the lower extremities in open chain.

4. 3. The Effects of a New ACL-Injury Prevention Device on Knee Kinematics and Hamstring and Quadriceps Co-Contraction : A Pilot Study

   Magister-uppsats, Sektionen för ekonomi och teknik (SET)

   Författare :Niklas Andersson; [2013]
   Nyckelord :Hamstring-quadriceps co-contraction; dynamic valgus; knee abduction; anterior cruciate ligament ACL injury; injury prevention; gender differences;

   Sammanfattning : Background: The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) –injury is 3-5 times greater in female athletes compared to male athletes. This may be partially attributed to lower levels of hamstring-quadriceps co-contraction in females with subsequent knee kinematics that increases risk of ACL-injury. LÄS MER
